Snowfest in Florida

We went to the City of St. Pete's Snowfest. It was a nice warm day.
We got there in time to see some of the parade. Here's a live nativity scene. And here's the St. Pete Pride. They did the same dance/twirling in a parade in Key West. There's one pretty funny memorable guy in the front.
Dylan got a string of beads. Then we met up with 2Dylan. He brought these lolly pops. How festive!Funny facesThey ran around the Christmas tree.
My favorite pic of the day:Running to the mailbox to send his letter to Santa. (Prev post)Steven's showing Dylan how much fun the other kids are having sledding on the (quickly melting) snow. He's promising him it won't be like Stanley Falls at Busch Gardens. Maybe this guy's name was Dylan too. He looked right at the camera. Weeee!He loved the toddler one so . . . We took him to the big ride. I waited in line with him planning on having him sit on my lap. But then I asked if he wanted to go by himself and he did!
Here's a close up of my face. I was so worried about sending him down alone.
He and Dylan also went on another slide. He had a cute excited face when his head popped up over the slide when he was at the top.
He and 2Dylan did it again because there was hardly any line.

It's always fun to try to get a stranger to take a group picture with antsy kids and hungry husbands. Daniel's mom went with us, so she put up with our wiggles.
We love St. Pete.

The picture of Dylan going down the slide by himself and you waiting worried at the top is one of my new all-time favorites. It says so much about both of you. Your little boy is getting bigger! He looks calm and determined, and you look nervous but at the same time so happy for him. I can just picture those same faces is 16 years when he's graduating from high school and going off to college.
